When it was time for Ning to leave, two men came to take him away. He was brought down to the hotel lobby, where he saw a few other heroes already gathered, all ready in their costumes.
No one had any of their managers around, so this meeting was really only going to be between the president and the heroes.
Lightspeed stood near the entrance, his white suit reflecting the overhead lights. He turned around and saw Ning looking in his direction.
The man hesitated for a moment, as if wanting to be left all alone. But something compelled him to socialize, so he moved. His body blurred as he arrived before Ning in less than a second. "I heard you were coming. Glad to see you again."
"Great to see you too," Ning said, giving a firm handshake.
Lightspeed smiled behind his mask. He attempted to strike up a conversation, congratulating Ning for his new rank. Ning could hear just how bad the man was when it came to small talk.
